Rotary Club of Southbank

Southbank Rotary, although still a very new club in the district, has set an enviable record with the number and quality of the projects that we have undertaken.

It is our hope that our leadership in setting the standard will inspire you to come and join us as we approach the centenary of Rotary in 2005.

Winemaker and Owner Bill Christopherson.
Vineyards and Winery - Opening hours: Call to make an appointment

Bill Christopherson had a really engaging smile, a wonderful personality and an encyclopaedic knowledge of wines. And he makes (and sells) some truly beautiful wines.

And Finally the Fabulous Private Picnic Concert at "Kangaroo Ridge"
20 acres of beautiful natural bushland which is home to Sam & Jenny Ginsberg
at Cottlesbridge/Hurstbridge.
Sam's ute cut short the 1km walk to the house for some, and then it was a picnic tea in their bushland garden.

This was followed by a fantastic concert with Cath Mundy and Jay Turner - internationally acclaimed singer-songwriters! Their songs enthralled and moved everyone.

Here's a sample of some of their songs:
High Life       (Click to hear)
Naked            (Click to hear)
Separation Street    (Click to hear)
